Leather Heather

I once met a girl whose name was Heather, whatever she wore ‘twas always leather. It rained, it poured, we got all wet, She said, “this leather smells like sweat”, Before each date, she now checks the weather.

Saw your message below. Yes, it's so hard to find time for writing. I am glad I laid out the other day and wrote about five contest poems, but I still have three left to do and no time because my dear nephew is coming to visit us today!!!

cleverly written limerick, Bill. I assume that Heather works for Channel 4 forecasting the weather never wearing leather on the set. :-)

Does she wear different clothes when it's going to rain, or does she simply cancel the date??? This is a fun one, Bill. I enjoyed it.

Always wears leather, if it rains no date. Totally weird if you ask me. lol Thanks for the comment, Milt. Bill
